The heart of the home lies in the open great room, where the living, dining, and kitchen areas seamlessly blend together.

Outside, a world of relaxation awaits. Step onto the deck, where outdoor furniture invites you to bask in the gentle breeze and soak up the sunshine. Slip into the private hot tub and feel your cares melt away as you gaze up at the starry sky, or gather around the fire pit area for cozy evenings filled with laughter and s'mores.

Downstairs, the lower level beckons with a bedroom, full bathroom, and family room complete with a TV and games, offering additional space for rest and recreation.

Venture just two tenths of a mile away, and you'll find yourself at the association Lake Michigan beach access, where sun, sand, and surf await. And with the charming towns of South Haven and Saugatuck/Douglas just a short drive away, you'll have endless opportunities for dining, shopping, and exploration.

Escape to Fort Sassafras and make memories that will last a lifetime. Book your stay today and let the adventure begin.

Please Note:
This home receives water via a well. It is perfectly safe to drink, but will taste a bit different if you're used to city water. If the power goes out, you will also be without water until the power is restored. 
This home has a septic system. Do not flush anything other than toilet paper and natural waste. Flushing other items, such as feminine product or baby wipes, can result in the septic backing up into the house. No one likes poo in the shower, so please be careful what you flush!
Due to the country setting, it is common to see various critters such as deer, raccoon, mice, squirrels, opposums, ants, spiders, bees, etc. Be sure to keep the doors closed so the wildlife does not welcome itself inside. Though pest control comes regularly, if you notice any critters inside, please let us know right away.

Our stay was great! The cabin is super spacious and cozy. We had 3 toddlers with us on our trip, and this place was PERFECT! They loved walking around the house and down to the lake. Each room fit our pack and plays comfortably! We definitely recommend this cabin for families!

Amazing 3 night stay with extended family. Location was short walking distance to a beautiful and uncrowded beach. Property more than accommodated 6 adults and 2 kids and felt spacious. Thoughtfully decorated to go with the surrounding Lake Michigan retreat vibe theme. Easy to get to both South Haven and Saugatuck within a 10-15 min drive for day trips. Hot tub in the evenings was perfect way to end the days. Whole family agreed it was an incredible stay and one we will remember for a long time. Will be back one day!
